This was looking like a 5-star stay, based on the location and amenities. However, I have to leave a 1-star review because both my wife and I received multiple bed bug bites during the stay, and the host refused to acknowledge any problems. The bites appeared on our final morning of the stay. What started as a few lines of red bites on our arms and chests turned into a mass of red swollen bumps, especially on my wife. The following day I asked the host if there had been any other reports of bug bites from the area, and she said they spray for mosquitoes and other biting bugs on the property. My wife went to urgent care because the bites were starting to hurt. The urgent care doctor diagnosed them as bed bug bites. At that point I asked the host about bed bugs at the property, which she denied. Her answer was to blame swimmer's itch from the lake, but my wife did not swim in any lakes.I notified VRBO on Friday afternoon and it was soon elevated to a supervisor. They reviewed pictures of the bites and a copy of the doctor's note. They contacted the host to see if this could be resolved. The host continued to deny any problems and VRBO just told me the host will not do anything to help.As I've learned a lot about bed bugs recently, a property can be perfectly clean but still have bed bugs. And bites don't show up immediately, they can take a few days to appear. We are being very careful now and testing for bed bugs in our house!
